A Different Season

There's santa, and presents, 
And eight little reindeer.
There's a tree, and festivities,
And lots of cheer.

But what most forget
In this special event
Is that this season is so different!

It's not about vacations
Or even decorations.
But about the SAVIOR who was sent.

About two thousand years ago
God left His throne above 
To show to all the sinful world
His gift of endless love.

You've heard the story-
Of Joseph and Mary
and how the babe was born.

About the shepherds 
And the wisemen:
Christ with gifts they did adorn.

Furthermore, about the angels
Which the Lord did send:
To all the earth they did proclaim
That God to earth did bend.

No royal clothes
No fancy speach
From the kingliness within

God came down
To reach out
Into the filth of sin

The birth of Christ is so much more
Than parties, gifts and song
He came to bring us peace and love
To last the whole year long.

And so you see
O'er the manger
The shadow of a tree,

That all who come
To Jesus Christ
Indeed! will be made free.

So, forget the hustle 
and leave the bustle. 
Forget all the business Holiday brings

And stop to consider
That babe in the manger
And with the angels sing

-----------

God's perfect gift for you awaits
A choice today which effects forever
Receive His free present-
Salvation from sin;

And the love, joy and peace that Christmas brings will enter your heart and leave you never!
